Re: Concert at Rose Studio Theatre Feb 2011
“I want to thank you again for the wonderful performance by your vocal ensemble and instrumentalists on February 25 as part of our Studio Jazz Series here at Rose Theatre Brampton. Judging by the feedback, the evening was a huge success – and a sell-out audience as well! We could not be happier. I hope your students enjoyed themselves and had a good experience. They are excellent ambassadors of both the college and the world of jazz music. You have much to be proud of.”
Gabriella Currie | Coordinator, Studio Jazz Series, Brampton Rose Theatre
Re: Brandon Jazz Festival 2007
“The Humber College Vocal Jazz Combo wowed the audiences for all five of their sold-out concerts at the Brandon Jazz Festival. No other concert sold out all five performances. With impeccable poise and maturity they thrilled and entertained their audiences and left them wanting more. The Humber College Vocal Jazz Combo certainly demonstrated what this genre is all about and the level that every group should aspire to. They were a huge hit at the 2007 Brandon Jazz Festival.”
Brent Campbell | Director Brandon Jazz Festival
